Are your students equipped for their careers in a world in which organized crime and terrorism are on the rise? Private Security in the 21st Century: Concepts and Applications informs the learner about the historical development of private security and provides new information for educating and training private security personnel in the beginning stages of their career, whether they are a full time student or entry level security worker on the job.
